When this works it works well. Even bypasses a frequent public wifi that doesn't accept vpns, by using secure core.

When it doesn't it frustrating. On Windows 11 and Arch linux I have issues after sleep or browser restart the extension may fail to load properly. When this happens when I click on the extension all it does is show the load circle. While in this state it may say its connected or may not, but when it says its connected there is no internet connection (which is good I guess? A kill switch feature would be nice). The only way I've been able to fix this is by disabling the extension and re enabling.

The other instance is when the the extension has an exclamation or X on it. These are the worst because they allow network traffic through, which if I have a tab open it auto connects to the site without a vpn connection. The only way I've been able to fix this is by disabling the extension and re enabling.

Only reason I am using this vpn is because it is very privacy focused, but this doesn't mean much if the extension malfunctions and lets traffic through.
